Not for the same issue but I find it staggering the police are arresting on average 30 people per day for social media posts.

And, given the numbers over the weekend, what proportion of these individuals pose *any* terrorist threat to the UK?

Fucking hell, what was the recruitment profile for this job?
The firm guarding sites where aid is distributed in Gaza has been using members of a US biker gang with a history of hostility to Islam to run its armed security, a BBC investigation has found.

They’re not sending our best people

We emailed Infidels MC for comment. In response, Mr Mulford instructed fellow leaders of the biker gang not to reply but included the BBC when he clicked "reply all" - inadvertently disclosing email addresses and names of fellow Infidels MC members, some of whom were working in Gaza.

It's systematic forced depopulation when the world stands by and permits these atrocities in 'self defence' you know who owns you.


"Israeli airstrikes are targeting Gaza City’s few remaining high-rise residential towers — among the only structures still standing which can shelter thousands of displaced families.

Most are surrounded by densely populated tent areas. Targeting the towers, often at short notice, can be deadly for civilians sheltering in and around them.

The destruction is all-encompassing — it cannot only be measured by the number of buildings destroyed. Israel is fragmenting communities, erasing traces of refuge, and dismantling mechanisms of survival.

This is yet another tactic in Israel’s campaign of forced displacement, and its attempts to ensure that the Palestinian population has nothing to return to.

On 5 September, at 13:19 local time, the Israeli military announced that Gaza City’s high-rise buildings would be targeted. 40 minutes later, two waves of missiles collapsed Mushtaha Tower, already heavily damaged by previous attacks.

On 6 September, residents were given just 32 minutes to evacuate before al-Soussi Tower was destroyed.

On 7 September, videos show people in the surrounding area injured by shrapnel and debris when al-Roya Tower (1) was levelled.

On 8 September, a second al-Roya Tower (2) was struck, destroying the headquarters of @pchrgaza, a prominent Palestinian human rights organisation recently targeted by US sanctions.

As the towers fall, people are yet again being squeezed from Gaza City towards the coast and then south, into overcrowded areas the Israeli military has misleadingly labelled as ‘vacant’ or ‘humanitarian’. Displacement means scrambling for limited and costly transport, carrying what little has survived the repeated onslaughts, and seeking shelter where none exists."

Arguing it's not a genocide is just mad to me at this point. I get people recoiling at the use of that word in the early days of the initial response but after that, it was obvious.

Don't see how you can call it anything else at this point. Not sure how anyone can seriously try and argue this is about the 7/10 attack or Hamas.

Israel have bombed 7 countries this year alone. War crimes being live streamed on a daily basis.

Its absolutely sickening and we seem to spend more time worrying about people protesting against genocide than the actual genocide taking place.

When will the world listen and do something about this?

Israel has committed genocide in Gaza, UN commission of inquiry says

The panel finds that four of the five genocidal acts defined under international law have been carried out against Palestinians during the war.

It's maybe not well worded but I think it's saying a country whose population would have almost certainly seen at least one family member murdered in the worst genocide the world has ever seen now doing the things it's doing in Gaza doesn't paint the human race in a good light.

The state of Israel was set up so that the long-oppressed global Jewish community could have a place to call their home and a place of sanctuary. Obviously, that was because it was historically a place which they believed to be the foundation of their religion through scriptures - they weren't going to put Israel in Greenland or Papua New Guinea.
The problem was that in the intervening two millennia or so, that land had become occupied by the Ottomans and subsequently (after WW1) the Arabs, so giving up a large piece of land was always going to be controversial. The Balfour Declaration in 1917 which proposed the state of Israel stated "... it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine ...".
The state of Israel, and frankly the rest of the world have forgotten that, and I agree with Pete to a certain extent, in that they really should know better, coming as they do from being one of the most oppressed peoples in history.

*Apologies for the slightly simplified history, but i haven't got time to type it all out. Most of the volatility in the entire region was caused by broken promises made to various peoples (notably the Arabs and the Kurds) after WW1 which ended up as a colonial land-grab by Britain and France. The one good thing we did was to propose and create Israel (the historical parallel of white saviour syndrome???) - the problem was that we had already promised the land to everyone else, and they have never forgotten it.

The land currently referred to as Israel has never ever been Palestine.
